Without understanding what they were saying, I love the surprise, understanding, focus and pride that were expressed by the monks!

This is awesome. If you haven’t read “The Universe in an Atom” by the Dalai Lama you might want to. It gives the history of how the monks got to this place.
I once heard His Holiness answer the question “How can you always remain so cheerful given the tragedy you deal with all the time”.
His reponse, “It takes less energy”
Cheers, mary
